Anything over 90 mins has to justify it.
Watched Once Upon a Time In America the other day - Nearly four hours, I think, which flew by.

Many years ago, I borrowed the DVD of Once Upon A Time In America from my brother. Thought the ending was a bit abrupt, and I didn’t really understand it. Only realised later that he had lost the second disc…

Went to see Bottoms last night. It’s a lesbian high school comedy and one that the young ones (12/13 upwards I imagine) will find quite funny. It stars Ayo Edebiri of The Bear and more…

Love love love Emma Seligman and Rachel Sennott - Shiva Baby was fantastic. On our list. 
my oldest texted me to see if I want to go and see the remastered Stop Making Sense at the cinema next week
one of those rare ‘my work here is done’ moments
It’s also the same cinema where I first saw it in about 1987

That deserves a 10 
Went to see this last night with a q&a with the director Alan Rudolph, producer (and far more) Carolyn Pfieffer and musician Mark Isham. He wrote the cafe classic ‘The Hawk’with Marianne Faithful which features in the final scene. It was not the greatest film but good to see it and hear the music loud.

This is such an underrated Seattle movie - lots of scenes shot in our neighborhood (the cafe is now a burrito joint next to a pot shop) and the art deco Asian Art Museum features prominently. Rainy and noir AF. And it’s got Divine and Kris Kristofferson with Marianne Faithful on the theme. What more could you want?

The Exorcist was ace at the cinema Saturday night. Remastered, the colours were sharp and the sound had been remixed and boosted in all the right places.
Dumb Money on Sunday afternoon about the Reddit v Wall St short squeeze on GameStop stocks. Good fun and a mad story.
Next up this week is The Creator. Stay tuned….

Nice, we’re going to see The Exorcist tomorrow night. Must be 15-20 years since I last saw it in the cinema.
The Creator is also on the list.
Really looking forward to The Creator, and cannot wait for Poor Things. Already lots of speculation that Emma Stone will get all the awards.
